2023年9月19日 · In this model, ESA – often working through FLPP – acts as a key enabler. One current project aims to help private sector partners develop proof-of-concept in-space transportation vehicles. These vehicles will be able to dock with target spacecraft and cargo in-orbit, take on payloads, carry them to their final orbits – and refuel ...

ESA’s FLPP programme ensures Europe’s competitive advantage in the global space transportation market. This initiative drives innovation in: flagship demonstrators. The programme acts as a supportive partner, helping reduce risks and create consistent standards for the European SpaceTech ecosystem.

FLPP is currently investigating On-Board Real-Time Trajectory Guidance Optimisation technology for future reusable launchers. A new low-cost avionic system heavily benefiting from COTS components and rapid and effective GNC design, verification and validation will be demonstrated with a sounding rocket launch later this year.

The Future Launchers Preparatory Programme (FLPP) is a technology development and maturation programme of the European Space Agency (ESA). It develops technologies for the application in future European launch vehicles (launchers) and …

2018年2月5日 · ESA’s programme dedicated to the preparation of this future, the Future Launchers Preparatory Programme (FLPP), began in 2003.
